The CW has released the first image from the network's new pilot THE FLASH, from Warner Bros. Television and based upon characters published by DC Comics.

The costume for The Flash was designed by three-time Oscar winner Colleen Atwood, who also designed the costume for ARROW and whose motion picture credits include Academy Awards for her work on Alice in Wonderland, Memoirs of a Geisha and Chicago, as well as seven additional Oscar nominations for films such as Snow White and the Huntsman, Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street and Sleepy Hollow, among others

Production begins on THE FLASH pilot next week. THE FLASH stars Grant Gustin as Barry Allen and The Flash. Through a freak accident, scientist Barry Allen is given the power of super speed that transforms him into the Fastest Man Alive, in THE FLASH.

THE FLASH pilot is executive produced by Greg Berlanti, Andrew Kreisberg and David Nutter (all of ARROW). Nutter is directing from a script by Berlanti & Kreisberg & DC Entertainment Chief Creative Officer Geoff Johns.

THE FLASH is from Bonanza Productions Inc. in association with Berlanti Productions and Warner Bros. Television, and is based upon characters published by DC Comics.
